How to use Chordelio

Everything the app does, step by step. The labels in bold are the app's own.

1. Choose the instrument

   Tap the instrument at the top right, or go to Settings → Instrument. Each instrument keeps its tuning.

   

2. Choose the chord

   Tap the root on the keyboard (C, D, E… and the sharps and flats above), then the type below it (maj, m, 7, m7…).

   

3. Browse the positions

   The column on the right lists the positions, from the nut up the neck. Tap one to see it large.

4. Hear it

   Tap the diagram to play the chord. Auto-play chords in the settings plays each new chord.

5. Intervals or notes

   Tap the row under the strings: the intervals (R for the root, 3, 5…), then the note names with sharps, then with flats.

6. Full screen

   The full screen button shows the chord alone, large, for a music stand or a tablet.

7. Find a chord from its notes

   Open the Chord Finder (the magnifier). Select notes on the keyboard: it lists the chords that contain them, with at most two extra notes.

   

8. Left-handed

   Settings → Left handed mirrors every diagram.

9. On the web

   In the web app the address follows the chord: bookmark it or send it, it opens on the same chord and position.
